The game as detailed was as fol

Georgia kicked off to Clemson and
the hall was returned 9 yards. Two
tackle plays netted only j yards for
Clemson, and the Tigers hooted the
hall up the field 30 yards. The ball
went out of hounds and It was Geor
gia's ball on her 33 yard line. Der
rick punted 40 yards and Lucas re
covered the ball. Georgia lost 4
yards on a quarter hack run. and
after a 1 yard gain over right tackle.
